ts
17

ts
19
(of a diagnostic test): the proportion of truly nondiseased persons, as measured by the gold standard, who are so identified by the diagnostic test under study
ts
20
the ability of a chemical, synthetic or of natural origin, to distinguish between highly similar target molecules
ts
21

ts
23

The probability of the test finding NO disease among those who do NOT have the disease or the proportion of people free of a disease who have a negative test
ts
25
The proportion (or percentage) of people who truly do NOT have the condition of interest who 'test negative' for that condition
ts
26
The probability that patients without a particular disease, condition or injury will test negative for the problem by a particular test
ts
27
a statistical measure of the accuracy of a screening test, i e , how likely a test is to label as negative those who do not have a disease or condition Contrast with sensitivity
ts
28
An operating characteristic of a diagnostic test that measures the ability of a test to exclude the presence of a disease (or condition) when it is truly not present Specificity is the proportion of nondiseased patients for whom there is a correctly negative test, expressed as the number of true negatives divided by the sum of true negatives + false positives (Contrast with sensitivity )
ts
29
The proportion of persons without disease who are correctly identified by a screening test or case definition as not having disease
ts
30
is the proportion of people free of a disease who have a negative test Specificity
